Address

Hornsby Gate, near Cumwhitton

Where exactly

In Hornsby Gate. The exact spot isn't known, so the pin marks the place, not the building. The position is approximate.

At Hornsby Gate, out in the country south-east of the city near Cumwhitton, open before 1828 and closed around 1972, the year before the State Management Scheme was wound up. It was a scheme house, number 70 on the 1920 roll. Not one of Cumwhinton's pubs: that village's survivor is the Lowther Arms.
